Broker, I think you win on the mileage. Pretty impressive including only 3 injectors in all that time. Did they all fail at separate times?

The way I read Brokers post, it looks like he is talking about someone elses truck. So that would put Broker in second place with a mesly little 506,000 mileshttp://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Big Smile.gifhttp://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Big Smile.gifhttp://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Big Smile.gif

Yes,someone we met. His was 4x2.My point ,there are alot of people getting them up there.They just don't have time to play on the forums.


Mine are all 4x4,hence K designation.No i don't use Amsoil pruducts except to lube my door hinges.

How are the 6.0L Ford trucks holding up now that the first year jitters that Ford had are over? I know you stated before that you had a few problems real early on with the first one you bought.


And are you ready to try the Cummins equipped Dodge trucks again?

Fords 6.0 and Torqshift problems are not over. A guy down the street has a 04' thats not 3 months old and is having serious issues. Mainly rough running/idle and tranny clunk/hard shifts.
